This morning on The First Team, on Sirius XM College Sports Radio ESPNU Radio, Danny Kannell was stating his Top 8 which includes Clemson at the number one spot.
OK, are you done laughing? Good, I'll move on.
His sole justification is the very reason the AP poll is basically a discredited joke: Until Clemson loses, they deserve to be ranked first. Period.
He said he took some flack from "an Ohio State blog" yesterday when he tweeted out his Top 8 and he said he was told his list was "intellectually dishonest", at which point he acted offended. Co-host Greg McElroy chimed in that "that's a serious allegation."
